  1. It's been so long, I forget how fun this truly was...until I look back at pictures of that one magical evening off the southernmost reaches of Florida.

    Captured by me, "Sunset on a Schooner".

  2. There's nothing else quite like sailing into the end of the day, is there?...

    Captured by me when I had the good fortune to be out on the water: "A February Sunset in the Florida Strait".

  3. The air always feels heavier when the sail's aflutter, doesn't it? Captured one evening off the coast of Florida by me: "Twilit Canvas".

  4. I want to be out there..."Sailing into the Sunset".

    Captured off the Florida Keys by me on a little cruise I did once.

  5. Oh, when I pencil it out, it doesn't make financial sense to live aboard full-time, but so help me, I want to go! A sight and sound that, once you're in it, you never want to end, captured one winter's eve off the coast of Florida: "Full Sail".

  6. The deepest days are the best days...and after the sun sets, "The Night is Ours".

    Captured on a sail off the coast of Florida, February 2022.

  7. It's not the time of year where warmth belongs...but I confess, looking back on that evening, it makes me wish I was there again...

    "Twilit Canvas", I call this one, captured on one of Florida's most delightful sunset sails.

  8. When the air is heavy, the breeze is warm, the sails flutter, and the sea laps before you as if you were in a dream. For what is life but dreams made reality...

    Captured one February evening: "Sailing into the Sunset".

  9. To date, the furthest south I've ever gone...and of all the directional milestones I've reached, this boat ride out of Key West might have been the most memorable. From sunset one February evening, "Full Sail".

  10. O daring joy, but safe! are they not all the seas of God? My capture of one day when, looking back on it, I could experience what those words truly mean. Lo, "Full Sail".

  11. The sort of evenings that make a person like me wish they'd been raised on the ocean, rocked to sleep by the gentle flutter of a sail...but somehow knowing that a romance as heavy and torrid as the Caribbean air itself would make it all better, for "The Night is Ours".

  12. I feel today what the great Walt Whitman wrote:
    "Sail forth—steer for the deep waters only,
    Reckless O soul, exploring, I with thee, and thou with me,
    For we are bound where mariner has not yet dared to go"
    Photo is the closest I've yet gotten to that vibe, but someday...

  13. There's something truly special about looking toward the low golden sun when you're out on the water...especially when your view is intercepted by not just one but two ships' worth of people doing the same thing. 😀

    My capture from Florida, "Ships in the Day".

  14. Oh I know I keep posting pictures of that same cruise, but evenings just hit different when you're in the full embrace of the ocean, especially in a place like the Florida Strait. My simply titled capture of that special day, "Sailing into the Sunset".

  15. I call this one "The Night is Ours". Those last red rays reflecting off the boom, the ripples in the water, even the receding silhouettes of the other sailboats just ooze a date night vibe where you're going to be under the stars, caressed by both beloved and sea air...

  16. That feeling when the cardinal direction "south" is tantamount to an uncontrollable urge, the heart and the soul bent on finding the nearest sailboat and letting those warm caresses of the sea take you where they will...

    My evocation, "Full Sail".

  17. I call this one "Full Sail", because the wind was so strong, the waters so vivid, and the sunset so low and bright on this February day in the Florida Strait. One of the most fun evenings I ever spent. 😍
